AMA Convention Moving
The Academy of Model Aeronautics is
moving its annual convention from
Pasadena, California, to the Ontario
Convention Center in Ontario, California,
in 2004. The 27th annual show will be
held January 9-11.
The new location will accommodate
even bigger crowds and allow event
administration to handle the growth that
the convention has enjoyed. Watch for
more details as the show gets closer. MA
